food than I have EVER had in london for less than about 40 quid.


£40 a head for nosh? get back to London mate.



Learn to read. Or better still learn grammar. I said:

"INFINITELY better food than I have EVER had in london for less than
about 40 quid."

Not:
"INFINITELY better food than I have EVER had in london, for less than
about 40 quid."


Now I know YOU can't tell the difference, because grammar wasn't in the
Bumper Book of How Things Work, but that is your problem, not mine.





In the country all the things I like are on my doorstep.


Cow **** on your doorstep?



Not so as you would notice. Surprisingly there are huge acres of
countryssde completely devoid of bovines.



Can you lie in bed on the weekends and not hear a single car?


I can lie in bed in my London pad and not hear cars. It is in a court yard
type of place with well sealed windows. Not a sound!


And when you open the windows? To let the birdsong in?





Can you walk out the back door and pick ALL the fresh herbs you need?


I have herbs shops nearby.



That costs money and they are not fresh.



Can you spend a while day without seeing a single other human being? God
what a relief THAT is !


I can sit in my London pad and not see soul too.


With your eyes open, sunshine.




Leave you cars permanently unlocked and even your house?


In London I don't need a car to leave unlocked.



I'll grant you that one.



...and still get to a museum, rock concert, prom concert or art gallery
in under 1 1/2 hours IF YOU REALLY want to.


I can get to them in a matter of minutes.


And actually have time to get to know your neighbours? - or not, if you
prefer.


Same here.


nope. Its not.
